Heard its the former, not heard any solid rumours about the latter.

It's definitely 3 days, Dunno if they'll have both mainstages open Friday, or if it'll start later like in the past, I reckon with pricing, and the fact they seem to be encouraging people to go Thursday (by including EE in all weekend camping tix) it's going to be 3 full days.

looks like metallica won't be playing another date after all.

The remaining dates on this summer's European tour have been announced including shows in Helsinki, Stockholm, Oslo, Horsens, Rome, Basel, and Warsaw. Don't forget to vote for the setlist after you buy your tickets - make sure your voice is heard!

Sonisphere retweeted an article by Metal Hammer which had about ten guesses for the headliner which were like Foos, Muse, Machine Head, Tool, Slayer, Sabbath etc. And Sonisphere said some good guesses going on here.

Here's the article:

Yeah I think it'll be Sabbath now. Not doing Reading and Leeds, and you'd expect a UK festival if they're doing the rest of Europe. Soundgarden are supporting them everywhere, so that'd be a good bet to happen here too. SOAD don't seem to be doing anything, so I expect that rumour to be wrong.

Black Sabbath

Soundgarden

Iron Maiden

Machine Head

Metallica

Slayer

Maybe Machine Head headlining second with Placebo subbing instead. Can't remember which days Maiden and Metallica are confirmed for.

May do a prediction at some point but can see Soundgarden, Placebo and Bullet for My Valentine being the subs. Although any of those six could headline the Saturn stage also as it's a fairly similar sized slot. Plus can definitely see Mastodon and Alice in Chains returning.

Yeah Soundgarden and Sabbath would definitely get me thinking about a day ticket, but I fear I'll have the same problem with Download where the bulk of the undercard just really isn't for me. Having said that, if it was similar to the Saturday mainstage at Download this year I'd probably be alight because I quite liked the look of that (bar Maiden headlining :P)

Actually, thinking about it Soundgarden into Sabbath is the same as Download 2012, and then you've obviously got Metallica there as well- are they really going to go for that?

    • Muse will be about but the issue with Muse is that they’ll have the pick of doing IOW, BST, Glasto, R&L or big parks/stadiums.

    • Not sure what this means for 2027 but it looks like Holt Farm's website and email are both now inactive and unavailable.   It'll be a shame if they don't operate for 2027 as it was an excellent alternative to the other off-site offerings.   Fingers crossed they're just enjoying their downtime 🤞
    • Deftones, Blink, Muse?   Deftones as the next bump up makes all the sense, Blink as the "band that has never played before" and round out with Muse as its been a long time since they headlined and they have a new album coming which seems on the heavier side from the singles so far.   I could see Muse do their own tour to be fair, maybe MCR in their place? Could also see Deftones switched out for Slipknot/SOAD depending on who is about.
    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)
